a lot of conservatives use sentences like

“I love country, I love government”

instead of

“I love the country, I love the government”

is it just to appeal to the large percentage of Americans who are illiterate or something…? idk why but it really pisses me off

    FWIW it’s not limited to conservatives, I’ve also read/heard it from environmentalists who say “for people and planet”. So I think it has more to do with trying to sounds lofty than any particular political leaning.
